TRUE HOLINESS WAS FOUNDED ON EPHESIANS 4:24
True Holiness was founded from Ephesians 4:24, which states, “And that ye put on the new man, which after God is created in righteousness and True Holiness.” A simple definition of the word holiness would be people, places and things set aside for the “exclusive” use of God. To give you an example of this principal, note Moses in the burning bush experience in the book of Exodus chapter 3. In this chapter, the ground that God referred to as “Holy Ground” had the same physical characteristics of the surrounding area. The only difference in the Holy ground was that it had been set aside for God’s exclusive use. A second example would be of this principal would be marriage. In the phrase “Holy Matrimony,” what makes the marriage holy is that you are now exclusive to your spouse. When we refer to our church as True Holiness Saints Center, Inc., we’re referring to a group of believers who are striving to live a lifestyle exclusive for God’s use.
Empower and impact are the two powerful words that have a huge role in our ministry. At True Holiness Saints Center Inc., we aim to empower people and impact our community for the cause of Christ. The broad mission of True Holiness Saints Center Inc. is to provide an atmosphere conducive to worshipping God in the beauty of His holiness, to evangelize the unchurched, and to edify and equip its members, while providing a fellowship in which strong relationships are built and nurtured. More specifically, the purpose and mission of True Holiness Saints Center Inc. is to effectively minister to people of all nations and to enhance spiritual growth and victorious living.
